Abstract

 The development of new industries has led to a requirement for super-smooth surfaces and for the ability to measure surfaces of industrial parts accurately; therefore, the measurement of engineering surface roughness is becoming increasingly important. In this work, a new approach is introduced to measure surface roughness by combining a light sectioning microscope and a computer vision system. This method has the advantage of being non-contact. The light sectioning microscope is used to view roughness profiles of the specimens to be measured and the vision system is used to capture images for the viewed profiles. A special program (named SRLSVision) has been totally developed in-house using MatlabTM software to analyze the captured images through two modules. The first module is used to extract the roughness profiles from the captured images by applying various image processing and computer vision algorithms. The second module is used to calculate the ISO roughness parameters (22 parameters) from the extracted profiles. The system has been calibrated for metric units and verified using a standard specimen. In addition, the system was used to measure various samples: machined by different operations and the obtained results were compared with the results obtained by measuring the same samples using a stylus instrument. The accuracy of the system proved to be within ±5.5% compared with the stylus instrument readings.
